Obama's doing what he needs to do to quell this manufactured war on his Faith and moveon to real issues.

7. you can't scrub TWENTY YEARS and $25,000 that easily.
This is America. We put our money where our mouth is. Rev Wright MARRIED Barack Obama. He BAPTIZED both of his kids. Obama has been a memeber of a hate church for more than twenty years. Wright made these bigot sermons MONTHS ago and the Obama camp didn't do a thing until the media....

People, WHEN SOMEONE TELLS YOU WHAT THEY ARE, BELIEVE THEM.

9. They're not a hate church.
And since when is the Obama camp responsible for every single thing a pastor says in his Church?

10. You mean like speaking at Bob Jones University? Should that association count? It always has.
Edited on Sun Mar-16-08 03:08 PM by seriousstan
Or is that OK now also?

This wasn't a single thing, it was a pattern that he has listened to for 20 years. Obama chose the church.

13. Can you tell us about YOUR Jesus?
Please do tell about your faith in God, and how you came to accept Jesus as your personal savior.

Tell us about the teachings of Jesus.

When did you accept Him?

Or is this all a crass political attack, and its not at all about religious faith but
attacking Obama either for being Muslim for not being Muslim etc....

Does this mean I have to refuse to release my tax forms also? I better start scrubbing my Myspace pages.

14. In a way, I wish Obama had stood up for his pastor
a little more. It seems kind of disingenuous to disavow him now after he has attended the good reverend's church all these years. If he truly believes in his pastor and in his message, he could have explained why. If Obama is secretly a wild-eyed radical instead of Mr. Milquetoast Get Along With Everybody, I might like him more.

Of course, I realize this is all politics, and all the candidates have been forced to throw people under the bus because of the general populace's hypersensitivity to political correctness.

18. If Obama had said the following, he'd have been alright:
"There is a problem in american society that I'm trying to address with my campaign. There is a lot of anger and resentment out there. I am trying to transcend that. I belong to this community and I feel their pain. However, I want to heal that pain and help bring forth a new unified America."

Or some such...

21. Obama did stand up for his mentor in that
respect but said he disagreed with some of what Pastor Wright preached.

This is an m$$$m/hilary manufactured war on Obama and he's doing what it takes to quell it and moveon to real issues.
